BridgePointe Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Nn"

Best Western Crossroads Of The Bluffs

10/10 Excellent

"Nice spot for a 1 night layover."

Quality Inn Council Bluffs I-80

8/10 Good

"We got in late traveling cross country and the staff were very nice. We had a mixup as our GPS took us to the Quality Inn on Broadway (yikes that place is scary), and we were grateful to realize our reservations were at this location. Scooters coffee is close as well as Taco Bell. The beds were super loud though and on weird platforms, every time you turned it made noise. The breakfast was okay with biscuits and gravy. The apples had fruit flies all over them. For the price and passing through it was all we needed."

Hilton Garden Inn Omaha East/Council Bluffs

10/10 Excellent

"Pool was nice. Staff attentive and helpful."
